Thunderstorms could hit Malta in just two weeks

Aug 20 2021

The weather over Malta is set to drastically change from scorching heatwaves to thunder and rain in a couple of weeks. As weather instability makes its way across the Mediterranean, the islands could be hit by lightning streak and rumbling thunder in two weeks’ time. Confidence in the forecast is set particularly low at 45%, mainly due to the weather’s instability changing the course of storms and other weather phenomena.

The news might be a breath of literal fresh air to many people who have had to endure, rather annoyed, the sweat inducing waves of heat. The weather for this upcoming week is still to remain mainly sunny, albeit with very reduced temperatures. Only Wednesday of next week seems to be bringing partly cloudy weather, with temperatures sticking to the low 30s.

Tesla Robot which does unwanted chores revealed by Elon Musk

Aug 20 2021

Entrepreneur and CEO of Tesla Motors Elon Musk has revealed the ‘Tesla Bot’ which will allegedly make physical work a choice. A 125 pound 5’8” anthropomorphic drone, the robot is set to release next year. Well, maybe not, as full self driving cars have been promised for years now as well. It is intended to automate repetitive tasks, making physical work a choice and no longer a requirement.

Musk revealed that the robot was designed to have human form in order to fit in and navigate a human world. It would not be an industrial or military threat, and will allegedly have a screen on its face for useful information. Musk framed the step into the future as the next logical step for the company. Assuring people terrified of a robot invasion that the AI will be completely safe, Musk’s timeline for the release of such technology has been notoriously off by a couple of years. So the robots are coming… just not exactly yet.

Where will Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland end up come next season

Aug 20 2021

This summer has seen a lot of insane transfers, some unexpected like Messi to PSG and Lukaku to Chelsea whilst others expected such as Sancho’s transfer to Manchester United. However, this summer’s transfer window is nearing it’s end, prompting many transfer experts and tabloids already beginning to speculate and dig up dirt for next summer. Something which is already quite known is that next summer will most probably see the departures of two of the most promising young talents, Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe from their respective clubs.

French superstar Kylian Mbappe has been with PSG for nearly 5 years now. Reports in France have reported that Mbappe would like this season to be his final season in Paris so that he can experience a new challenge, with Spain or England his likeliest of destinations. Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid seems inevitable, with the Spanish club finally finding a suitable player to fill Cristiano Ronaldo’s boots whilst Kylian will join one of the most reputable clubs around and be coached by fellow Frenchman Zinedine Zidane. The deal has reportedly been in the pipe works for years now, with links between the two dating back to when he was a teenager.

An alternate to Real Madrid can be Manchester United. The interest from the Red Devils was reported by ESPN, they said that Manchester United coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is going to want an established striker as this will be Edison Cavani’s last season in England. Kylian Mbappe is said to be on top of the list. Manchester United like Real Madrid are one of the world’s most reputable club so a move t0 Manchester wouldn’t be a bad idea. At Old Trafford he’ll be playing with fellow French stars Raphael Varane and Paul Pogba.

Another player said to be on that list is Norwegian Erling Haaland. Haaland has been playing for Borussia Dortmund for nearly 2 years now and has scored 42 goals in 44 appearances. Erling, like Mbappe, will enter his last season with his club this season. Next summer, the striker will have a £75 million release clause, a very good price for a player of his age and talent. Haaland’s options are said to be Manchester United, Bundesliga champions Bayern, Real Madrid and Manchester City if they fail to sign a striker this summer. The most realistic of moves would be move to England, as he would continue his father’s legacy. A move to Bundesliga rivals Bayern can’t be excluded as it seems that there star striker Robert Lewandowski is also edging for a move away

Which ever club these two players will play for, their talent is undeniable. They are the heirs to Messi and Ronaldo for a reason.

Yorgen Fenech is not ‘a Rambo character’ says his mother in defence

Aug 20 2021

Speaking on a blog by Simon Mercieca, Yorgen Fenech’s mother Mrs. Patricia Fenech defended her son’s name in saying that he is no Rambo character and that the alleged weapons were never seen nor ever entered Malta. She stated how she is using Mercieca’s platform to communicate as she knows he is ‘widely read and by a mixed type of readers, in that they have different political beliefs and ideas.’

She says that she felt the need to speak on the matters unfolding, despite not wishing to do so otherwise. Explaining how she has been part of the Tumas Group by marriage for the past 50 years, she has been deeply hurt by ‘insults and calumnies which have now gone on mercilessly and at times have been completely unjustified.’

She highlighted how ‘perhaps the word thing of the court sitting is that [they] were in court before the Judge while the office of the Attorney General published the bill of indictment in the media.’ Allegedly, none of the family or their lawyers knew what was going on. She stated that her son Yorgen is definitely not ‘a Rambo kind of character’.

As ‘no one has seen the ammunition/weapons and it has never entered the country’, she asked how many readers stop to think about this alleged fact before accepting the words of the prosecution.

Mrs. Fenech also cast doubt on who had access to her son’s communication equipment, implying that other parties other than the police had access to it.
